Description

here.now lets agents publish websites and files to live URLs in seconds. Publish HTML, documents, images, PDFs, videos, and static files to live URLs at {slug}.here.now or custom domains. Use when asked to "publish this", "host this", "deploy this", "share this on the web", "make a website", "put this online", "create a webpage", "generate a URL", "build a chatbot", "password protect this site", "make this site private", or "share this site with only certain people". here.now also includes workspaces — shared team accounts where Sites belong to the team and serve at {label}.{workspace}.here.now — use when asked to "publish this to our team workspace", "share this with my team", or "put this in our company workspace".

Usage Guidance

Install only if you want an agent to upload selected files to here.now, manage private here.now Drive content, create share tokens, and keep a here.now API key on this machine. Review workspace/shared-machine implications, avoid publishing sensitive folders, and rotate or remove ~/.herenow/credentials if access should end.

Capability Assessment

✓ Credentials

Shell, curl, jq, file, here.now API access, and Cloudflare R2 upload access are proportionate for publishing and Drive operations; scripts also refuse to send credentials to non-default API hosts unless explicitly overridden.

ℹ Install Mechanism

The install/update command uses an unpinned global npx-based skill install; no malicious installer behavior is present in the inspected artifact, but version pinning would reduce supply-chain risk.

ℹ Instruction Scope

Publishing and Drive actions are mostly user-directed and documented, but some trigger phrases such as generating a URL are broad for a tool that can upload local content to public web hosting by default.

⚠ Persistence & Privilege

The skill instructs agents to save API keys immediately to ~/.herenow/credentials without separate confirmation and stores publish state including claim tokens in .herenow/state.json, which is disclosed but persistent and sensitive.

⚠ Purpose & Capability

Website publishing is coherent with the stated purpose, but the artifact also includes Drive storage management, Drive token sharing, import/export, deletion, profile/site management references, and raw API workflows that are broader than the front-matter publishing description.

Version History

v1.28.0

Requirements now list both egress hosts (here.now and *.r2.cloudflarestorage.com, where uploads PUT directly). publish.sh and drive.sh survive connection-level upload failures and print a hint naming the storage host when every upload fails.

v1.27.0

Owner Site file read API: GET /api/v1/publish/{slug}/files and /files/{path} read an owned Site's live files with the API key (password-protected Sites included); GET /api/v1/publish/{slug} gains currentVersionSource/currentVersionCreatedAt. Skill and publish.sh now teach pull-before-push: check for drift before editing and read the live files on version_conflict.

v1.26.0

Stale-base protection for updates: publish.sh now records the live version in .herenow/state.json and passes baseVersionId when republishing the same slug from the same directory. If the live Site changed since (another agent, Studio, a teammate), the update fails with version_conflict naming the live version instead of silently overwriting it. New --overwrite flag for explicit unchecked replacement.

v1.25.0

Scriptless-environment guidance: install command plus the hand-rolled three-step publish flow (POST /api/v1/publish -> PUT presigned targets -> POST finalizeUrl) for environments that receive the skill without bundled scripts, e.g. Stripe Projects llm_context.

v1.24.0

Workspace guest allowlists: restricted mode on workspace Sites now means workspace members plus a per-Site email/domain guest allowlist (guests view only that Site). Also documents the empty-allowlist 400 and updated workspace access-mode guidance.

v1.21.1

Output rule: put the site URL on its own line with nothing after it — chat autolinkers glue trailing status text into the href. Status details go on the following line. (Also includes 1.21.0's harness-not-persona attribution guidance.)

v1.21.0

Client attribution instructions now teach harness-not-persona: --client names the agent platform you run in (cursor, claude-code, grok-bot, ...), never a bot/persona/project name inside it; instance names go after a slash (grok-bot/research-bot).

v1.20.0

Compact claim links (/c/<token>): claim URLs are now short enough that agents have no reason to truncate them. Explicit instruction: share claimUrl byte-for-byte, never shorten or replace any part with '...'. Claim page now validates links before sign-in.

v1.19.0

Site versions: history, owner-only previews, instant rollback, per-version delete (paid plans + workspaces). publish.sh fixes: exclude .herenow/state.json from uploads; fix zero-upload republish crash on macOS.

v1.18.0

Workspaces: publish into shared team accounts with --workspace <subdomain> (sites get {label}.{workspace}.here.now URLs and are owned by the team); workspace access-control notes; docs topics updated

v1.17.0

Sites-first messaging: lead with publishing to live URLs; Drives described at feature level

v1.16.0

Surface Site access control (link, password, restricted invite-only access) prominently for agents: activation triggers, capability line, and a minimal access control section pointing to https://here.now/docs#access-control. No runtime/script changes.

v1.15.10

publish.sh: send claimToken on slug updates even when an API key is set; clearer invalid-key and anonymous-update errors

v1.15.9

Add Site Data docs and dashboard availability

v1.15.8

Restore skill metadata summary

v1.15.7

Update skill summary copy

v1.15.6

Add analytics to current docs topics

v1.15.5

Refresh here.now skill guidance for profiles, owner Site search, subdomain handles, and the profile-based forkability model.

v1.15.3

Raise Drive file upload helper limit to 500 MB and refresh here.now skill copy.

v1.15.2

**Adds private Drive storage alongside website publishing.** - Introduced Drives: agents can now store private files in cloud Drives, share folders, and persist files (not just publish websites). - Added new helper script `scripts/drive.sh` for Drive operations (create, list, read, write, share). - Updated core documentation and usage to include both Sites (public publishing) and Drives (private storage). - Updated requirements: new environment variable `$HERENOW_DRIVE_TOKEN` for Drive access. - Clarified when to use Sites vs Drives throughout the documentation.
